Maturing In Christ: Steadfastness Steadfastness Through Temptation

James 1:14-15 “But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. 15 Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.”

Proverbs 1:10 “My son, if sinners entice you, do not consent.”

2 Peter 2:14 “They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!”

Psalm 112:7 “He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.”

Isaiah 26:4 “Trust in the LORD forever, for the LORD GOD is an everlasting rock.”

Maturing In Christ: Steadfastness Steadfastness Through Testing

II Corinthians 2:9 “For this is why I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in everything.”

Temptation≠Testing

James 1:13 “Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.”

1 Thessalonians 2:4 “but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God who tests our hearts.”

Romans 12:2 “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

2 Corinthians 13:5 “Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you fail to meet the test!”

2 Corinthians 2:9 “For this is why I wrote, that I might test you and know whether you are obedient in everything.”

James 1:3 “for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.”
